Re: Philosophy of mathMandelbrot eh? If you're talking about fractals; #27 2005-12-10 15:09:31
Re: Philosophy of mathFractals using Photoshop? How? "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #28 2005-12-11 01:42:17
Re: Philosophy of mathSure, take pictures of clouds and fuse them together on photoshop! As at night, we realise we will never Know and further thinking is pointless....Yet we start again and again #29 2005-12-12 12:51:46
Re: Philosophy of math"pictures of clouds" #30 2005-12-12 15:27:20
Re: Philosophy of mathHave to be careful of the kiln temperature, or you will have fractal flames. "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #31 2005-12-12 22:27:55
Re: Philosophy of mathThat rises a question: are flames fractals? As we know, fire isn't "really" a substance, so it can't "really" have a form? As at night, we realise we will never Know and further thinking is pointless....Yet we start again and again #32 2005-12-12 22:41:29
Re: Philosophy of mathNot a substance - true. It is a phenomenon involving heat and light. "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #33 2005-12-13 02:24:49
Re: Philosophy of mathWhich I suppose makes them fractals. As at night, we realise we will never Know and further thinking is pointless....Yet we start again and again #34 2005-12-13 03:24:40
Re: Philosophy of mathI think fire is a substance. It's just a gas that has been heated beyond its flashpoint. Why did the vector cross the road? It wanted to be normal. #35 2005-12-13 04:24:54
Re: Philosophy of mathMy graphic calculator (rounded 10^13) gives the same. As at night, we realise we will never Know and further thinking is pointless....Yet we start again and again #36 2005-12-13 07:34:11
Re: Philosophy of mathI used 2π as the multiplier and got: "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #37 2005-12-15 06:32:03
Re: Philosophy of mathCould exact-similary fractals be created in other ways than using standard geometry figures? As at night, we realise we will never Know and further thinking is pointless....Yet we start again and again |
